Did you know Herts and Central Beds currently receive no Government funding for family hubs? Delighted our Best Start programme is putting this right. Yesterday I asked Bridget Phillipson to use this opportunity to redouble our efforts to tackle the crisis in SEND support.

Appalled by Israeli Defence Minister Katz's proposal to move Gaza's population to Rafah. Palestinian territory must not be reduced. Civilians must be able to return to their communities. We need to move towards a ceasefire deal and open a pathway to lasting peace.

We're thrilled to work with our Labour colleagues like Ali to deliver this brand new Community Right to Buy - protecting pubs, shops and social hubs long into the future with community ownership 🤝

Great to join Vijaiya P Labour & Co-Op Councillor, Great Ashby and Cllr Laura Williams for their surgery in Great Ashby this evening! Good conversations on everything from the need for infrastructure investment to challenges with local bus routes. Next up I’m in Kimpton tomorrow evening!

Great to visit RAF Syerston to experience first hand the RAF Cadet Force’s flying training 🛫 Glad that as part of our plan to expand Cadet forces even more young people will get to experience it in the future!

We really enjoyed this meeting Alistair Strathern. 😀 The message was consistent among the health professionals and academics who attended: play reduces trauma and enables efficiency savings for the NHS. 🙌 🧸🩺👶 NHS England RCPCH The RCN Sophie's Legacy UCLH PEDAL Cam

Fantastic to join York Road Nursery this morning to see their new sensory garden 🌿 It’s easy to see why they’ve won Green Flag Eco School status with Distinction, well done to all the staff and children for this well deserved recognition 👏

It was great to celebrate York Road Nursery's Green Flag Award. A reminder that future generations will bear the full brunt of runaway climate change - unless we act. Today I asked Ed Miliband to redouble our efforts to combat the climate crisis.

Great to join Gurdwara Aid in Parliament yesterday for the launch of their new handbook for Gurdwaras! The event was a fantastic showcase of some great organisation from across the Sikh community 👏
